Monkseaton, North Tyneside

Project type: Rear extension, extensive renovation and loft conversion

Design in detail

The Monkseaton conservation area has some exceptional period properties with masses of potential to create beautiful character homes designed for modern living. The previous owner of this house hadn’t touched much in the last 50 years.

We worked closely with the new owners to co-create their dream family home. On the ground floor we converted the Coach House into a self contained gîte where the family lived whilst the works were undertaken.

To the main house, the ground floor was extended to provide this stunning apex glazed kitchen diner and living room.

In the loft, matching glazing was adopted to provide one of the most sumptuous master suites we have ever seen, with incredible ensuite and walk in wardrobes.

The clients looked to keep much of the original features and have furnished the home sympathetically with furniture of the period and some beautiful art installations. We are delighted to see this home looking absolutely glorious.
